Soterix Medical Inc. (SMI) was formed to develop and deploy innovative medical treatments focused on neuropsychiatric and neurological disorders and rehabilitation. Founded in 2008, SMI is the world leader in clinical trials for non-invasive neuromodulation working with over 250 medical centers in the US and worldwide. SMI has licensed and developed a comprehensive intellectual property portfolio that includes High-Definition transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (HD-tDCS), Limited Total Energy tDCS (LTE-tDCS), and Neurotargeting. From the most targeted non-invasive clinical systems to the most portable units, Soterix Medical provides clinicians and patients with unique and adaptable solutions. Ongoing Phase I, II, IIb, and III trials use investigational devices that are regulated/limited by US or Federal law.

Engineering Serving Humanity

At Soterix Medical, Engineering Serving Humanity means that we are committed to bring the most advanced medical technology into the hands of people who need it. The commitment underpins everything we do.

This work recognizes innovation in neuromodulation through the Soterix Medical High-Definition tDCS platform currently in clinical trials at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Abhishek Datta summarizes "For 5 years, SMI has been the standard for innovation in neuromodulation, and this award recognizes the breakthrough of HD-tDCS, the only platform that combines the robustness and portability of tDCS with the targeting of TMS. We are thrilled for this recognition from the BRAIN prize."

BACKGROUND: High-Definition tDCS (HD-tDCS) is an exclusive Neuromodulation technology developed by Soterix Medical Inc. Invented at The City College of New York, it is the only technology platform that allows tolerated non-invasive delivery of therapeutic current to desired brain regions. As a result, HD-tDCS offers potential for safe and effective treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders not possible with any other technology. HD-tDCS is made possible through innovations in electrode design allowing safe and tolerated passage of current through proprietary “High-Definition” electrodes, individualized brain current-flow modeling and through patented targeting algorithms indicating how to place and energize HD-electrodes on the head.
